Q:

I have been on birth control for 3 months. Last month, I had to take my pills two days late, plus, I accidentally took the sugar pills when I was supposed to take the hormone pills. I used a condom all month, and had a negative home pregnancy test. Today is the third day of my new packet. I had unprotected sex today, and my boyfriend ejaculated inside of me. What are the odds of me getting pregnant?

A:

There is still a risk of you being fertile this month given that you did not have an appropriate hormone schedule last month. You would want to continue to use condoms this cycle, and get tested again in 10 days to confirm you are not pregnant from this most recent intercourse.
